Mike, you don't know Rummy!  His implant allows hands free sailing and
drinking.  For info see Ruminjectors.com

Rummy,

I am surprised at your response!  Use both hands?  And spill your drink? 
There must be a better solution to the problem, after all, we are talking 
about "single-handed" sailing, aren't we?
